NBA Keeper League - Yahoo

[Dr. Dinger]

I'm sure there will be room when we start next season, either someone will drop out or we can expand by 2 teams.

Best top 3 in league for keepers. With Porter’s bubble breakout I’ll have to make space for him

I was actually just talking to my bro yesterday about how stacked your keeper set is. IMO that's 3 Top 10 fantasy players next season, and Porter could be a star. Jaylen Brown ain't garbage, either.

[Dr. Dinger]

Just sent this to Eze, but it's worth posting publicly as well:

 

 

If we go the expansion route, what I would probably do is lower the keeper # from 6 to 5, then let the expansion teams pick from the pool until they each have 5 players on their team (this pool would include rookies, cuts, and any international imports). It's not the strongest draft class so the expansion teams would probably be pretty rough in year one.

 

More likely however, one or two owners will quit or go AWOL and then I'll just replace them with new owners and do a dispersal draft with their combined assets, and then do the annual new player draft as planned. In that scenario, current owners would also be allowed to opt-in to the dispersal draft.

 

League will be capped at 14 teams, regardless.

[Dr. Dinger]

And as a reminder, all non-playoff teams will have equal odds in the annual draft lottery and there is no pick trading.

 

ie

 

Picks 1-6: Lottery

7 - Tune Squad

8 - Quadruple Doink

9 - Monstars

10 - Regular Season Coast

11 - Giannis Among Men

12 - Raining Bricks

 

Snake draft format applies for these annual drafts.

[BlueRocky]

Is the team name Shot Clock Cheese or Mr. Splash Man available?

Is that a Chris Smoove reference?

[BlueRocky]

Yes.

 

[Orgfiller]

Nice.

[Boxcar]

Is that a Chris Smoove reference?

 

What else could it reference?

[The Cats Ass]

Kemba Walker

Eric Bledsoe

Victor Oladipo

Josh Richardson

Miles Bridges

Cam Reddish

 

I would combine 2 of these players here for a better player.

[Dr. Dinger]

Do we have anybody dropping this league? Anyone new interested in joining? This is probably a good time to take a census.

[connorp]

Im in

[Dr. Dinger]

Im in

 

Yeah I would hope so, you might have the best keeper set in the league.

Inaugural champ still up for grabs!

I think I’ll draft better depth wise this year. Grabbed too many scorers last year being my first time at it

[Dr. Dinger]

I'm assuming since Boxy died that he will not be continuing this league. Any takers for his team?

[Orgfiller]

So with the season starting on December 22nd, is setting the keeper deadline to Dec. 13 not a little too tight? We could always have short windows naturally, and maybe I'm overestimating how long the waiver draft will take.

[Dr. Dinger]

We could set it earlier, I’m flexible. I’m kinda waiting to see who’s in or out still, I haven’t done my due diligence. Wanna be co-commish?

[Abomination]

Are we staying on Yahoo or moving it?

[Dr. Dinger]

Don’t even start.

Not really but if you do need the help then I'll do it.

[Orgfiller]

Keepers (listing 6, if it's 5 for dispersal draft purposes then it'll be the ones in bold)

 

LeBron James

Paul George (still really wanna trade his annoying ass if there are takers)

Jrue Holiday

Zach Lavine

Jusuf Nurkic

CJ McCollum

[The Cats Ass]

Don’t even start.

 

Does this mean a move to Fantax is imminent?

[Dr. Dinger]

OK, housekeeping, here's what I have for attendance so far, please correct me if I'm wrong.

 

A Giannis Among Men - my bro - Confirmed

Abomination - Abom - Confirmed

BTS is a Bitch - Boxy - Presumed Dead

Connor’s Ballers - Connor - Confirmed

Fear The Dunk - FTD - Needs to Confirm

Quadruple Doink - Dinger - Confirmed

Raining Bricks - Havok 24 - Confirmed

Regular Season Coast - Org - Confirmed

Swipa da Fox - Goldbull - Confirmed

The Kats Ass - Cats Ass - Confirmed

The Monstars - BTS - Confirmed

Tune Squad - Jaysblue - Confirmed

 

Also, BlueRocky has expressed interest in joining and would have first dibs at claiming a team. *IF* we have 3 teams dropping and only BR joining, we could contract down to a 10 team league, although ideally I'd like to keep it at 12. Keeper deadline has been moved up to Dec 6 to accommodate the waiver draft and a potential dispersal draft. Please help contact any unconfirmed parties and/or round up replacements!

 

If you are one of the parties bolded above, please check in or DM me with your confirmation/resignation.

Honestly I don't mind moving to FT if it means more buy-in, but I don't see an obvious benefit. Maybe I can add Charges Taken to Steals as a category with the customization, haven't looked into it at all.

Something to think about. Since all the other leagues are on Fantrax, people might be getting more used to their setup. I just like having everything all in one place.

[SpeedyGose]

Hey Dr D, if anyone drops shoot me a line...I would definitely be interested. Only have one basketball league right now so I have the time to commit for sure

[Dr. Dinger]

Awesome, I’m sure we can accommodate you. Expanding to 14 teams would be a best case scenario IMO.

[havok24]

I'm back in for next season. I'll set my keepers this week.

[BTS]

My keepers are set. If anyone wants to trade for devonte Graham let me know
